AK Senate to release report on alleged retaliation by one of its members

Senate President Pete Kelly recently told reporters that while Wasilla Sen. David Wilson was cleared of sexual harassment allegations, "there was a retaliation."

Kelly said Monday there was an official finding and the Senate plans to release the report, but he wouldn't elaborate.

A message was left with Wilson's office.

The Legislature's human resources officer found Wilson didn't violate policies against harassment when he placed a cellphone near the hemline of the skirt of a female House staffer trying to keep Wilson from listening outside a closed-door meeting.

The report was released at Wilson's request. However, he also asked the video be released, which the Legislature has not made available.
